Twenty years ago, we developed a biotechnology-based industrial process for manufacturing of wool textiles. It allows wool textiles to be washed in a washing machine without being felted or damaged. This innovation was just a start and from there arose interest in utilising biotechnology in manufacturing processes of other fibers and materials. For instance, we have developed microparticle-free and reusable textiles for hospital operating rooms. Earlier, the textiles had to be disposed off once used. Not any more.
